Abstract: This book, “Thermal Nonequilibrium”, is a compilation of the papers presented during the Eighth International Meeting on Thermodiffusion (IMT8) from June 9 to June 13, 2008, at the Gustav-Stresemann-Institut in Bonn, Germany. The conference is jointly organized by the Forschungszentrum Jülich and the University of Bayreuth. IMT8 is the eighth conference in the IMT series that started out in 1994 in Toulouse with IMT1 and then continued on a biannual basis: IMT2 (Pau 1996), IMT3 (Mons 1998), IMT4 (Bayreuth 2000), IMT5 (Lyngby 2002), IMT6 (Varenna 2004), and IMT7 (San Sebastian 2006). While the first meetings originated from Francophone countries, the conference quickly became international. Now, the objective of the IMT conferences is to bring together researchers in the field of thermodiffusion from all over the world and to provide a regular platform for scientific discussion and exchange. The participating researchers represent a substantial fraction of the scientific community currently working in the field of thermodiffusion, and this compilation gives an overview of the current state of research in these active groups. Following the structure of the meeting, the book is organized into sections that loosely define the topics of the contributions: simple fluids, polymers, colloids, convection, and simulation. We want to thank all authors for timely submitting well formatted contributions required for the compilation of this book. We also express our thanks to many people who helped during the preparation of the conference, especially Ursula Funk-Kath, Marie Göcking and Dorothea Henkel, who shouldered much of the organizational burden such as the design of the WEB pages, preparation of the abstract book and this proceeding volume. The reasonable conference fee with a reduction for young researchers would not have been possible without financial support from the Forschungszentrum Jülich and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG).
